Dwight was outscored in just one quarter, and that was when the Comets scored nearly half their points. DTHS was up 18-9 after one period before Reed-Custer hit for 25 in the second to draw the game even at 34-34 at the break.

The Trojans created a little space with a 19-15 difference in the third quarter before striking for 25 points in the fourth frame.

“Carson Banks and Triston Dirks both had great games on offensive end and on the boards,” Long said. “Caleb Boma did an outstanding job running our offense vs. some intense pressure.”
